Well, that would be lovely Tom, but I'm not the only one who finds that
impractical or there would be plenty of chatter about it on the List. I'm
looking for a simple weekend outing.

I'd be happy with a Regional Gathering along the lines of what Ben has going
on in Frisco or a  Buses by the Bay sort of thing.

I know there are at least 50 of us in the Seattle to Vancouver corridor;
heck, I see 3 to 6  at every bluegrass festival we go to.

Just dreaming, Jake
